28 days before the national primaries, The STEP in Santa Fe will be one of the last provincial elections before Patricia Bullrich and Horacio Rodríguez Larreta measure forces. That is why they generate so much appeal in the opposition: the Buenos Aires head of government has his candidate, Maximiliano Pullaro, and the former minister supported Carolina Losada. One of them will celebrate this Sunday the 16th.
The national and provincial campaigns had their similarities: the internal rift was also fierce in Santa Fe. Losada assured that Pullaro has ties to drug trafficking: “To go against them you have to have clean hands and not have dead people in the closet,” he shot. The former security minister from Santa Fe replied: “I put those gangs in jail. And I’m going to do it again.” However, she avoided making personal considerations about her internal rival: “They will never find me disqualifying her,” she declared.
So Losada went a step further. He questioned whether they can continue together after the primaries: “I will not be with Pullaro after the PASO because I have ethical and moral differences,” he told the newspaper La Nación. The statements bothered even their own and Mauricio Macri, who had traveled to Santa Fe to accompany her, disavowed her: “Everyone knows in Santa Fe and at the national level that the day after you have to work. And everyone is going to take her that way to have a competition with height ”.
According the surveys, Whoever comes out favored within Unidos para Cambiar (the seal that represents Together for Change in Santa Fe) would have a very smooth path to win the general elections to be held in September. But as with Bullrich and Larreta, in the province they are attentive to see what the polls say: whether or not votes were lost due to the fierce internal.
The two pre-candidates for presidents of Together for Change will be present this Sunday in the province. They will be the guests of honor at each of the bunkers that will be set up in Rosario, the most populous city and the one that received the most attention in the campaign against drug violence.
Larreta wants to hang another cockade, as he did in Jujuy, in San Luis or in San Juan, for example. Bullrich also wants to celebrate, but in his environment the provincial elections of the national ones take off. They say that, regardless of the candidates they have supported, the former minister measures better. All unknowns will be resolved in less than a month.
